Anyone familiar with the Hatsan line of rifles/pistols?

Any particularly good models? Bad models?

Just came across a couple and was wondering they are worthwhile?

Their high end models are kickin' a punch, but they're not noteworthy as particularly good rifles. Finish is a bit like chinese rifles. They also suffer from the FPS disease allthough they're known to be quite powerfull but breaking in with these rifles means "breaking" in.

That's what I learned from a lot of reviews, and unsatisfied customers who got themselves a Gamo afterwards.

I've got a Falcon and I believe it's built by hatsun. So far it's a good rifle, I like it. I bought it just before the gas ram was offered from the factory.

It could be that with their lower end rifles, they don't put much time into quality control, but going up the line tehy might get better.

Eric:
The Walther "Camo" model is a Hatsan. Also, the Hatsan Torpedo 155 is an interesting underlever.
Check out Hatsan Arms Company and yes it is a Turkish manufacturer.

I know where to find them- but have no experience using any of their products, so I'm looking for some opinions- both on function and cosmetics.

Hi..Two of my mates have Hatsans a mod 70 & mod 85 both 1000fps 1.77 they are the same gun just the 85 has a nicer stock they are both 2years old and are great guns about the same quitly as a gamo.
The 1250fps mod 125 & 1350fps mod 135 are spring eaters they say the 135 is good for 1500 to 2000 shots before you notice a drop in fps.
If I can fined a mod 85 at a good price it will be mine.

Bad choice. It's not a rifle for leisure shooting. You'll need to spend a couple of $ 100 before it's working well. Overall quality isn't that good with these either.

Good starting PCP's are the AirArms S200/CZ 200, Dominator 1250, and the Benjamin Discovery. The latest one would be a go if you're in the US because it's really affordable.

My Hatsan .22 CR60 is built solid, it has a good finish to it and it is easy to work on.
